No known transmission of other respiratory viruses (eg, severe acute respiratory syndrome or Middle East respiratory syndrome coronavirus) has occurred during the past 20 years through blood transfusion. Similar to other allogeneic blood products, cryoprecipitate undergoes nucleic acid testing for HIV, hepatitis B, and hepatitis C. Yet, it does not undergo viral inactivation, as it occurs with fibrinogen concentrate. Patient presents within 3 to 5 half-lives of the drug (half-life is around 12 hours for apixaban and 5 to 9 hours for rivaroxaban) - this window (3 to 5 half-lives)can be extended if renal impairment is present and sufficient to prolong the half-life of the medication. Mean 24-hour post-CPB cumulative allogeneic transfusions were 16.3 units (95% CI, 14.9-17.8) in the fibrinogen concentrate group and 17.0 units (95% CI, 15.6-18.6) in the cryoprecipitate group.

Instead, cryoprecipitate is used to treat acquired hypofibrinogenemia in cardiac surgery, multitrauma, obstetrical hemorrhage, and other critical care settings.12 Until recently, cryoprecipitate was the only effective treatment for acquired hypofibrinogenemia in cardiac surgical patients.

PCC is leukocyte-free and less likely to cause infusion reactions. When Heyde syndrome patients develop post-CPBacquired hypofibrinogenemia, they may be better served by the treatment with cryoprecipitate, which contains large VWF multimers.

However, the small difference in a chest tube output observed in this study may not be clinically significant.42 The limitations of this small, single-center trial were that 6 patients (10%) in the control group were given fibrinogen concentrate postoperatively, confounding the studys results, and the chest tube output is well known to have limitations as a surrogate for bleeding. 2008 Oct; [PubMed PMID: 18538049], Braun G, [Management of bleeding in patients on antithrombotic therapy]. 2020; 60(suppl 3):S17S23.

There have been several randomized controlled trials of fibrinogen concentrate in cardiac surgical patients (Table 2).24,3542 One of the first trials conducted by Karlsson et al35 randomized elective coronary artery bypass grafting (CABG) patients who had a preoperative plasma fibrinogen concentration of 380 mg/L. endobj More recently, fibrinogen concentrate has been used off-label in the United States and is the standard in European countries and Canada to treat the acquired hypofibrinogenemia during cardiac surgery. Prothrombincomplex concentrates (PCCs) are highly purified concentrates with haemostatic activity pre- paredfrom pooled plasma. 2016; 116:208214. Patients were included if they were at least 18 years of age and had undergone cardiac surgery with bleeding requiring intervention with 4-factor PCC or rFVIIa. PCC contains significantly higher amounts of the clotting factors compared to FFP; one dose of PCC equals 8 to 16 units of FFP. 10. 22. 2019; 322:111. 9.

A recent meta-analysis of randomized controlled trials of fibrinogen concentrate in the cardiac surgical patients suggested that the fibrinogen concentrate decreases RBC transfusion (relative risk [RR] = 0.64; 95% CI, 0.49-0.83), but there was no reduction in other transfusions (eg, platelets and plasma), and there was no reduction in the reoperations for bleeding.49 Taken together, the current evidence supporting the routine use of fibrinogen concentrate in the cardiac surgical patients is not particularly strong, even when the treatment is based on the whole blood viscoelastic coagulation testing.

In the cases of severe hypofibrinogenemia, as occurs in massive transfusion, delayed treatment can be quite detrimental due to dilutional coagulopathy with a fixed-ratio RBC, FFP, and platelet transfusion. 25. Cryoprecipitate has been the gold standard for treating acquired hypofibrinogenemia in cardiac surgery for nearly 50 years. Although this may seem trivial, off-label drug use is associated with a 1.5-fold higher incidence of serious adverse drug events.46 Furthermore, a significant amount of pharmacovigilance time may be needed to identify a pattern of increased thromboembolic risk.

This agent's initial development was for hemophilia; however, with the availability of recombinant replacement factors, it no longer has a use in this setting. Thromboembolic complications at 30 days were similar between the two groups (4-factor PCC: 13% vs. rFVIIa 26%, p = 0.08).

Patients were included if they were at least 18 years of age and had undergone cardiac surgery with bleeding requiring intervention with 4-factor PCC or rFVIIa. In particular, VWF and fibrinogen content can be affected by the amount of plasma that is left for suspension.15 Cryoprecipitate content is also affected by donor variability in factor activity and the type of freezer that is used for storage.16 Most single donor cryoprecipitate units contain at least 250 mg of fibrinogen, which translates to 1.25 g of fibrinogen for a 5 donor pool or 1.5 g of fibrinogen for a 6 donor pool.17 According to the American Red Cross, the mean factor VIII activity of a single donor cryoprecipitate unit is 136 IU and of a pool is 555 IU. Nonetheless, viral inactivation of fibrinogen concentrate further reduces any risk of transmitting SARS-CoV-2. Safe in heart failure: PCC can be safely administered in patients with cardiac or renal impairment who may be unable totolerate large volumes of plasma. Experts have stated that in cases where 4-factor PCC is unavailable, 3 factor PCC with recombinant factor VII is an acceptable alternative. Acquisition cost is approximately $1000 per 1 g. In comparison, a pooled cryoprecipitate unit (5 donor pool) costs around $300 to acquire, but there are also processing costs and significant costs related to wastage. The patients in the rFVIIa group, required more cryoprecipitate than those in the 4-factor PCC group (4-factor PCC: 2 units (range 0-6) vs. rFVIIa: 2 units (range 0-8), p = 0.03). The 2 fibrinogen concentrates approved for the treatment of congenital hypofibrinogenemia in the United States are RiaSTAP (CSL Behring, King of Prussia, PA), which has a fibrinogen concentration of 9001300 mg/vial (~1000 mg); and FIBRYGA (Octapharma USA, Paramus, NJ), which has a fibrinogen concentration of 1000 mg/vial.21,22 Previous studies have demonstrated a significant variation in the fibrinogen content of cryoprecipitate, which ranges from 120 to 796 mg per individual unit.2326 This variability may lead to an inconsistent hemostatic efficacy for cryoprecipitate. Fibrinogen concentrate has multiple potential advantages including rapid reconstitution, greater dose predictability, viral inactivation during processing, and reduced transfusion-related adverse events. 2015; 6:1935019351. If required the PCCs were administered in conjunction with fibrinogen concentrate, blood products (packed red cells, platelets, FFP, cryoprecipitate) and antifibrinolytic agents such as aprotinin or tranexamic acid.

The acquisition time for cryoprecipitate (3040 minutes) is considerably longer compared to fibrinogen concentrate because of the need to thaw cryoprecipitate. Please try after some time.

The mechanism of action of PCC in reversing anticoagulation with DOACs remains unestablished. Low levels of factor XIII are associated with increased postoperative bleeding and reoperation for bleeding in the cardiac surgery.55 Factor XIII administration was previously found to reduce blood loss in the CABG patients, when given at a dose of 1250 or 2500 IU.56 Unfortunately, these results were not replicated in a larger study of cardiac surgical patients, where 17.5 and 35 IU/kg doses were administered, and there was no reduction in allogeneic transfusion or reoperation.57 Nevertheless, in patients with excessive hemodilution or in those with major blood loss, the additional factor XIII activity that is present in the cryoprecipitate may be beneficial in achieving hemostasis.

The shelf life is also much longer for fibrinogen concentrate (3 years) compared to cryoprecipitate (1 year), which may be important in smaller, rural hospitals that have a less frequent need for fibrinogen therapy.61 There is also a longer shelf life after reconstitution because fibrinogen concentrate is able to be used for 24 hours after reconstitution versus 6 hours after cryoprecipitate thaws.
